Bombay Hook
(Smyrna, Delaware) is an incredible place to view wildlife year-round...by car or foot. You can drive through and park for a walk along one of the wildlife trails.

In November you can catch migrating birds and ones that will stick around all winter, like these Gadwalls and Northern Shovelers, photographed by Jeff White.

Here are two slideshows (from Beth Graham and Jeff White) of birds at Bombay Hook in November.

Below Jeff's photos from Bombay Hook are some that he captured in Salem County.

The woods at Finn's Point/Fort Mott is a great area for spotting migrating warblers and songbirds in the Spring and Fall.

This Ruby-crowned Kinglet, captured by Jeff White, will likely spend the winter in New Jersey, having migrated from its northern summer home in Canada or New England.

Jeff White had a fabulous view of this Peregrine Falcon and these Roseate Spoonbills on a recent drive through Forsythe NWR.

Here are a few recent photos by Jeff White.

What a great capture of the last days of summer; while Supawna Meadows is still bright and green, flowers are in bloom with butterflies drinking the sweet nectar, and moth caterpillars searching for a hideaway to spin their cocoons and fall into winter torpor.

Tiger Moths are probably more commonly known in their juvenile state, the "Woolly Bear" caterpillar.

This Tiger Moth made it's way indoors, which made for a great close-up view.

Tiger Moths are a diverse group of moths, but this one is believed to be a Harnessed Tiger Moth. Identification requires a close look at at the criss-cross bands and lines (how many?, how thin/thick?, etc.) on the moth's wings.

Here are some photos taken by Jeff White and Elyce O'Malley in Marilyn Patterson's yard during the "Big Sit" held last month.

This is the second "Big Sit" Marilyn has held. We thank her for opening her yard to visitors and friends. She certainly makes everyone feel very welcome.

It looks like this is the beginning of a wonderful tradition.

Don't forget it's "Butterfly Month".

Alex Alampi found these butterflies and moths in his yard. And what great finds they are!
